Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong

Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Tomorrow Will Be Your Death Anniversary (Second Update!)

“My Flowing Light Sword! Damn you, Yang Jian, how dare you destroy my weapon, I will never forgive you!”

The medium-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure longsword was now broken, its spirituality greatly diminished. Even if it could be repaired, the grade would likely be greatly reduced. Having lost the Immortal-Slaying Sword, Guang Chengzi had obtained this substitute divine weapon with great difficulty, only to see it so easily shattered by Erlang God Yang Jian’s Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd, breaking it with a single strike. Guang Chengzi was both furious and angry, wishing he could tear Erlang God Yang Jian to pieces.

If looks could kill, Erlang God Yang Jian would have died countless times by now, but unfortunately, Guang Chengzi’s venomous glares had no deterrence on Erlang God Yang Jian.

“I still say the same thing, open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart and release Nezha and the others, and I will let you leave. Otherwise, this day next year will be your death anniversary!”

Erlang God Yang Jian looked at Guang Chengzi with cold eyes, not retreating an inch even as Guang Chengzi produced the Seal of Heaven-Subduing. This Seal of Heaven-Subduing was indeed formidable, but it had no effect on him!

The Seal of Heaven-Subduing specifically targeted the forehead, and those with insufficient physical strength would have their brains burst upon impact. However, Yang Jian had long ago perfected the Eight-Nine Profound Skill and achieved the Undying Golden Body; even if the Seal of Heaven-Subduing hit him, it would at most make him dizzy for a while, unable to hurt him at all!

...

Moreover, now that both he and Guang Chengzi were in the Quasi-Saint Realm of cultivation, a superior-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure no longer posed the same threat to Quasi-Saint level experts as it did to Daluo Golden Immortals. Guang Chengzi had already lost his handy weapon, and continuing the fight would almost certainly lead to his defeat!

“Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart, retract!”

Guang Chengzi’s eyes flickered, glaring at Erlang God Yang Jian with a face full of hatred. His medium-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure longsword was destroyed, and the embryonic form of the domain he could exert through the medium-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure longsword was no longer possible to deploy. If he continued to fight, he really risked losing his life.

This place was unsuitable for staying longer. It was time to retreat!

With a thought, Guang Chengzi retrieved the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart floating in midair, grabbed the scroll, and turned to flee on a cloud. The chart indeed had a greater ability to trap foes than to kill them. Guang Chengzi couldn’t rely solely on the power of the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart to kill all the entrapped individuals, like Leng Xuan, Nezha, the Third Prince, and others, but as long as he brought the chart back to the Heavenly Court, there would be means to deal with the experts of the Flower-Fruit Mountain Demon Race trapped within, ensuring they wouldn’t walk out of the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart alive!

“Buzz~!”

Just as Guang Chengzi had generated a wisp of cloud under his feet and was about to rise into the sky, a surge of purple power emanated from Erlang God Yang Jian’s Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd, instantly enveloping him. Immediately, Guang Chengzi felt a numbness in his body, the cloud under his feet dispersed, and he was firmly suppressed by a tremendous force, completely immobile.

“Domain, domain power! You’ve also grasped domain power! How, how is this possible?”

Guang Chengzi’s eyes widened in horror, incredulously turning his head to look at Erlang God Yang Jian, finally showing a hint of fear.

Erlang God Yang Jian had mastered domain power prematurely too. Is domain power that easy to master now? The Demon Monkey Sun Wukong mastered it prematurely, Ying Long, Ying Tian, and Candle Dragon Ao Tian also did, and now even Erlang God Yang Jian. Since when has domain power become so common?

“Nothing is impossible! To grasp domain power prematurely with the help of Innate Spiritual Treasure Divine Weapons has long been nothing unusual in our Flower-Fruit Mountain,” Erlang God Yang Jian said indifferently, pausing before adding, “Originally you could have used domain power too; I know you had grasped it, but unfortunately, your weapon is destroyed, and now you probably can’t use it, right?”

The words of Erlang God Yang Jian made Guang Chengzi’s heart sink, leaving him without even the last bit of luck; Yang Jian had seen through all his schemes. What more could he say?

“Yang Jian, you’re ruthless! I admit defeat!”

Guang Chengzi lowered his head with a look of despondency, sighing helplessly yet reluctantly, “I can open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart and release the people, but you must ensure that I can leave safely!”

Whoosh!

No sooner had Guang Chengzi finished his words than an invisible great force acted upon the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart scroll in his hand. Guang Chengzi felt a numbness in his palm and found himself unable to hold onto the scroll any longer. He watched helplessly as it flew out of his hand and landed in the hands of Erlang God Yang Jian.

“As expected, you have not refined mastery over this Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart, just able to activate it!”

After examining the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart held in his palm, Erlang God Yang Jian’s lips immediately curved into a mocking cold smile, “I also know the Dharma Method to activate the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart. I can open it myself to save the people; why should I agree to your terms and let you go?”

“You! Yang Jian, what are you trying to do?”

A chill ran through Guang Chengzi’s heart, and a fear of death surged from within. He roared fiercely yet with inner anxiety, “If you dare to kill me, it’s tantamount to betraying and annihilating your teacher’s heritage; our master definitely won’t spare you!”

“The master? Are you referring to Primordial Heavenly Venerable?”

Erlang God Yang Jian laughed loudly toward the sky, “He is indeed very formidable, and I am no match for him, but I am not afraid of him at all! Do you really think I don’t know? Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor has long issued an edict that the Heavenly Dao Saints must not interfere lightly in the conflicts of the Three Realms; violators will be stripped of their saintly positions and punished severely. Do you think Primordial Heavenly Venerable would defy Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor’s edict and bring trouble upon himself for you?”

“You, you…”

Guang Chengzi was at a loss for words. Indeed, Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor had issued such an order; only a few knew about it and he had learned about it from Primordial Heavenly Venerable himself. How did Erlang God Yang Jian know about it?

“Guang Chengzi, you rejected my proposal earlier, and now I have decided not to give you a chance anymore! I said that from this day next year, it will be your memorial day. Die!”

Domain power erupted, firmly suppressing Guang Chengzi. The Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd in the hands of Erlang God Yang Jian sparkled with purple thunder light and with a “pfft” sound, it pierced through Guang Chengzi’s body. The strong destructive power, along with the purple thunder and lightning, surged into Guang Chengzi’s body, instantly shattering his Primordial Spirit and rapidly disintegrating his physical body into a sky full of blood and flesh.

Supreme Saintly Heavenly Venerable Guang Chengzi, both spirit and body destroyed, utterly fell!

Clap!

Erlang God Yang Jian grabbed the Seal of Heaven-Subduing in his hand, tucked it away with a flick, and with both hands holding the scroll of the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart, he shook it open. Immortal Primordial Force poured into the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart, activating the unsealing Dharma Method.
